U need to find the reasons for not sleeping
Only response of the baby to any issue is crying. So try to find
Baby is hungry
Baby is uncomfortable due to diaper
Baby is having gas in stomach
Is baby not able to sleep due to heat so on and so forth
Is child is on any medicine which disturbs sleep
Also see if there are any developmental issues ie baby not speaking walking, or baby is having running nose or blocked nose or cough etc so in that case there may be other issues and u need to consult your doctor
If no issues are there try sleep hygiene
ie 1.have a fixed night time routine before sleep
2.Avoid high energy activities as mobile or tv , physical activity one hour before sleep time
3. Feed before sleep
4. Keep the room quiet and dark
5. See that the child is comfortable in bed
Next Steps
If problem still persists please consult your doctor
